Take Me Out To The Ball Game

Take me out with the crowd;

Buy me some peanuts and Cracker Jacks,
***SCREECH***

Wait! I didn't get peanuts OR Cracker Jacks!!! Looks like Eric will have to take us back!

Last weekend Eric and I went to a Memphis Redbirds game with some friends. The Redbirds are a Triple-A minor league team (whatever THAT means!). They played against (ummm) the blue team (smiley face) and unfortunately lost BIG TIME (1-8).

As always, Kinsley enjoyed watching those around her and she enjoyed making her "bunny" face at everyone. It was a nice way to enjoy a warm evening. We had a great time and just hope that next time Eric doesn't hold the purse strings too tight and buys us peanuts, or Cracker Jacks. Although, a deep-fried hot dog is mighty tempting......

“I don’t want to drive up to the pearly gates in a shiny sports car, wearing beautifully, tailored clothes, my hair expertly coiffed, and with long, perfectly manicured fingernails. I want to drive up in a station wagon that has mud on the wheels from taking kids to scout camp. I want to be there with grass stains on my shoes from mowing Sister Schenk’s lawn. I want to be there with a smudge of peanut butter on my shirt from making sandwiches for a sick neighbor’s children. I want to be there with a little dirt under my fingernails from helping to weed someone’s garden. I want to be there with children’s sticky kisses on my cheeks and the tears of a friend on my shoulder. I want the Lord to know I was really here and that I really lived.”
